A 3.93 330 equates to a 9.79. My car has gone 1.36 but my best ever et is only 10.14, a 1.36 is a 9.79, there's no way in the world mine would have ran that. Jason gave me a "real world" # of between a 9.59-9.64ish 137-138 mph based on his proven formula but the bottom line is we don`t race math we race tracks and we`ll see what it "really" runs soon enuff..............  Your definitely running good enough to be in the 9.6?,s 9.599, not quite yet, close though.  Ya, I just dream of a 9.59 but you guys are possibly correct in that it`s not there............time will tell..........

I did see him last Thursday but not sure if he took pics or not (I think he did take some). Since I am a charity case he was so kind to give me some digital files. Here is another one with his info on it and a link. I checked today and he has not posted the pics yet from last Thursday. Keep checking and if you find one you can purchase on line but if you want a Digital file I think you are going to have to beg, or just email him. http://bowtie0069.fotki.com/.

Thumper,, I said "I would be happy with 1.45" LOL. My street Barracuda went 10.1 the other night with a 1.65 60'

Was awesome except for my brake deal and slightly lifting before the finish but will figure it out and do it again as soon as the weather comes back around............

Thankxxx.......no, the brakes aren't good and are binding when released so apparently I have it all plumbed wrong from years ago and will address it when I can. I lifted a bit early just to make sure it would stop as I have to pump em a few times HARD to get em to bite. It`s nasty here and summers coming so I`m done for a bit but will try and make a full 1/4 pass or two in sept at Famoso so me and Mikey can line em up again............
